gen-java-stream

Arguments: &optional new if-exists verbose

This is a helper function used in connection with def-java-to-lisp-wrapper to set the output stream used by the macro.

The new can be:

• t: means send output to *standard-output*
• a stream: means send output to that stream
• :none: means suppress output
• a pathname designator: means send output to the file

The if-exists argument is used only when new is a pathname designator. In that case, its values can be:

• :supersede: means delete an existing file and create a new file
• :append: means add to an existing file or create a new file
• any other value: signal an error if the file exists

If the verbose argument is non-nil, emit a message when the output stream changes.
